Gurkemeie

I've never smelled a turmeric fragrance before, and this one is warmer and earthier than I expected, spicy without going sharp. It wears close to the skin and lasts a good few hours on me.

I was worried the turmeric would smell like a spice cabinet, but it's actually soft and warm with this earthy drydown that lingers for hours. Wore it to dinner and kept catching it on my scarf.

I bought this expecting straight spice and instead got this warm, earthy thing that smells like a spice market at dusk. It wears close to the skin for the first hour, then the turmeric softens into something almost cozy. Unisex was the right call here, my husband keeps stealing sprays.
